  1. Data Collection ForAncillary AttendantsandCase Managers Presented by Ann Kennedy Autism Consultant/Diagnostician

  2. Why Collect Data? • Documentation that IEP is being implemented • Monitoring of daily progress • Decision-making for selection of goals • Reporting of overall student progress • Decision-making for teaching methods

  3. Ancillary Attendant Duties • Facilitate the IEP in the Gen Ed Classroom: prompt! • Make mental notes • Record an estimated level of prompts and progress each day or each class period, for: • PreVoc • Behavior • Social Skills • Communication • Give the data collection to the case manager at the end of each day.

  4. Case Manager Duties • Remember that the attendant is “borrowing” your teaching license • Monitor the data and activities of AA – daily! • Collect trial-by-trial data every two weeks for report card (IEP) scoring • Communicate with the parents

  5. Prompting • Level 0 = Independence (Natural) • Level 1 = Expectant Waiting • Level 2 = Visual and Verbal Cues • Level 3 = Combinations of above • Level 4 = Physical Cues/Assistance

  6. Estimating Performance (for AAs) • While facilitating (prompting), keep mental notes • Record the average range of performance per skill (objective)

  7. Recording Codes (for AAs) • Record a number for the average prompting required for the student to perform the skill (per objective)

  8. Trial-by-Trial Data Collection • TBT = a test, so - no prompting • Should be completed every two weeks for every IEP objective • Compare TBT with daily estimates of performance • Analyze the data to make instructional or prompting modifications • The average TBT scores are recorded as progress on the IEP

  9. When You Get Back to School • Create a data collection system • Review today’s information (AAs and CMs) • Talk about how you will get the info to the case manager at the end of each day • Talk about how/when you will discuss the data and make any instructional or prompting changes

  10. When in doubt…. • Consult the instructions on the front of EasyIEP. • Email: kennedy_ann@hcde.org

  11. Important! • Remember: AAs are working under the license of the case manager • Only case managers report progress to parents. • Let’s practice talking to parents……

  12. Facilitate, Communicate, Cooperate
